Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman Thealby type brooch of Hull?s corpus type 146. The short, deep plain wings conceal a hinged pin mechanism, but the pin is missing. On top of the head is an integral solid chain loop, which has been repaired by the finder. The arched bow in one continuous curve is plain except for a vertical groove running down both edges of the bow. The moulded foot knob consists of intermitting ribs and grooves. The complete catchplate extends to over half way up the bow. The length of the brooch is 50.1mm, the width is 14.9mm and the weight is 8.27g. Similar examples can be found in Hattatt, 1987, P.122, No.945-46. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 100
